It is true that in Greece the turists are named KOROIDA (suckers)?

Travel Tips
Absolutely no. As in any profession, there are good and bad professionals among people involved in the turist business. But the majority of them are kind, eager to render their good services, and they respect turists, as Greeks may sometimes be nasty to other Greeks, though they respect hospitality.
Others
Unlikely, the typical slur the Greeks use is Malaka.
Yes! Because they buy whatever they see.
And usually in Greece the tourist shops rise the prises when they see tourists.
So yes they are suckers.
No, its not true. However we usually call this way some people who ask some silly questions like this one.
A greek travel agent/ group escort.
Yes. But the word tourist is already a negative one all over the world. In every country we all use the expression: " this restaurant is for tourists" or "this area is touristic" and we imply the average tourist that eats anything, buys anything e.t.c.

Greece is no different here. Being smart and not falling into this category largely depends on you.
No, tourists are an important part of our economy but there are still few shop owners who call them koroida as you said because they can't recognize the value of money here. But just because some are rude it doesn't mean we are all the same. Remember when we go to other countries we're tourists too.
